though Sylvan's training method was to just start doing 140 k and get used to it without food

so you are 10 k short and to heavy on cliff bars

Hey this is an awesome ride. Puts you in the saddle for more hills then the morning bursts.
Super scenic and beautiful and if you can't keep up with Glenowyn the whole time (me) you can send her ahead to do the Lattoria loops and then re-join at the bottom of the Metchosin Road, gravel pit... for some more hills and back through the Lagoon (by then the wind is at your back!).
I clocked on my bike 61k back home to Esquimalt in slightly under three hours.
Suppose the ubers could do it in 2.5! (or less)
I'm in next Wednesday at Switch Bridge 5:15 p.m.
